Reported Cases to DAMS Intl. by Patients with chronic
health problems who recovered after treating Root Canaled Teeth or Jawbone
Cavitations
Between
1976 and 1984, 8 separate studies of patients suffering Trigeminal Neuralgia
and Atypical Facial Neuralgia, considered to be untreatable and unresponsive to
conventional medical therapies, received cavitation curettement.
There
were
a total of 450 patients with 547
cavitations
. After
curettement, 322 were pain free, 99 had significant improvement and 32 did not
have improvement. Almost 94% of the patients experienced significant
improvement, if not total abatement of their pain. Those studies focused on
chronic facial and neck
pain,
however other parts of
the body may be
involved. Dr.

Dentistry has far
reaching effects on the human body. My experience that took place sixteen years
ago, involved a painful elbow that almost ended my dental career. Severe pain
would not allow me to reach for dental instruments or extract a tooth that
required any strength. An evaluation of my teeth with a Digital Computerized
Meter pointed to a dead tooth that had no clinical symptoms. Removal of the
tooth relieved the pain in my
elbow, and
allowed me to
continue to practice dentistry. I have repeatedly seen this same experience in
variable symptoms of my patients; with
root canals,
cavitations
,
toxins from gingival
cervicular
fluid
,
metal
and
metal
oxide
in
composites
, and
dental restorations
.
My forty-eight years in dentistry with the past twenty-one devoted to
"dentistry
health"—
—points to the critical health needs not addressed in our
dental schools today.

Hi, I thought some of
you who are new might like to hear something good that spontaneously happened
to me and my tooth from hell. In Jan 2000 my root canal got infected and
pulled. It was over 20 years old and had a crown of course. Within days I was
getting relief from chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, food allergies. All
that remains is chemical allergies, much to my sorrow, but very joyful over the
others leaving. That crown had nickel in
it
and it was
right next to a gold inlay. The inlay has been replaced with a
composit
that was tested safe for me, and I have a
flexite
1 tooth bridge (no Metal) for the missing tooth and
I love it. There's one crown left
thats
supposed to
be titanium with fake enamel on it. I had a heavy metal fecal test
in Mar 2000, no mention of titanium, but was a little high in nickel and
beryllium. Mercury was
very low because I had
amalgams replaced about 12 years ago trying to improve my health. I was
very ill for 20 years, sometimes in bed for 6 months at a time on and off. In
1991 I started taking Milk Thistle and other herbs using me as a guinea pig because
no doctors could help me. I started feeling better and figured
out it was the Milk
Thistle so kept taking it. I was able to work and lead a quiet
somewhat normal life if I avoided chemicals, perfume, etc. I'm still taking MT
hoping to get rid of the nickel and beryllium, I'm still very
alergic
to chemicals so I'm afraid of the other chelators. I
feel real good, nothing hurts, and it still surprises me when I realize how
fast it reversed and how simple it was if only someone had known
a long
time ago. I still have hay fever that I
had before the root canal and sometimes something I eat will make
me ache, but I feel like
I've been set free from hell. I think I will plant MT in my flower garden and
build it a shrine too. It really did keep me from becoming totally unable to
work, but my amalgams were already
out
and I only had
2 crowns, I gold inlay and 1 root canal, which had an amalgam under the crown
too. Sometimes when you least expect it, something wonderful
happens. Kathy Bell
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I had a root canal
tooth pulled (which had mercury up in the root) and had
improvement. My blood sugar was very unstable and that was one of
the things that got quite a bit better and that was noticeable in
the first 24 hrs. after
having the tooth pulled. My energy level, twitching and tremors
improved after a while too. the chemical sensitivity symptoms
started around the time I had the root canal done.
Then when I had that
root canal tooth pulled my symptoms got better. Looks like a
pattern.

I had my mercury
fillings removed as I was going through homeopathic detox which helped a lot,
but I still had this strange potassium problem for 3 yrs. I had two
cavitations
cleaned out (infected bone where wisdom teeth
used to be) and I had dramatic change in health in first week. My potassium
deficiency disappeared, my libido came back, and now my need for
synthroid
is decreasing!!!!!! It is hard to
believe. Jeanmarie

Many years

I had wisdom teeth removed. Two weeks in reverse

Sweeling

the bags of pus on my gums broke and the pain instantly went away and then the
swelling. Are

I am a mercury and lead toxic ex-dental

age 17 and at age 29 I became pregnant with my son whom from the day he was
born had gastrointestinal problems, persistent vomiting & gagging,
nightmares, and was shy and very thin. I decided to try detox and
approx
Sept. of 2000 I learned about NDF and started him on
4-12 drops per day until the half-ounce was gone. What a difference! No more
vomiting, nightmares,
shyness

Hi Katarina, I read your post about wondering if
theres
amalgam under
your crown. It happened to me, I don't know why
I ever doubted it, all
my fillings were the silver ones. It
turned out the one under the crown
was too, I found out when that tooth got
infected and had to be pulled,
it was a root canal tooth. Shortly
after it was pulled, the long time
CFS went away. I got a little
ahead of the story. In my search for
getting my health back I had all visible
amalgams replaced with
composits
in 1987. The benefit was
the end
of raging candida, but still
had a lot of symptoms until the root canal was
pulled. That was in
January this year.

Hi,
I just want to also say
its
not always mercury, I was
severely ill
for 20+ years. In Jan 2000, after an infected
root canal with nickel crown was pulled,
I
Got well
.
I then had a fecal heavy metal test. It was too high in
nickel and
berillium
.
Having mixed metals or any metal is also very bad
on your
health.Kathy

Twelve years
ago
I had
my silver fillings replaced with
composit
hoping
to improve my health (CFS, MCS, food and
chemical allergies, candida)
Very slowly I no longer had chronic candida, but
no other improvements
until last year when a root canal got infected
and pulled. It had a
crown with Nickel in it. The Chronic fatigue is
gone, most food
allery
gone, frequent urination is gone

didn't realize I had it till it was

I’ve had had a
really bad
sinus infection lately and also a root canal tooth
flare up. My face near my sinuses was in
excruciating pain. It was my 3rd molar in my upper jaw which is
connected to the maxillary sinuses. I'm 26 years old, have some
mercury in my mouth, but here's the good news, I just had my root‑canal tooth
pulled. I had a root canal performed 3 years ago that took several
times before I couldn't feel it anymore. Then I had
an apicoectomy because I still had
pain, and
3 days ago I had it pulled and all
cleaned out.
Dr.
Meinig referred
me to Dr. Robert
Kulacz
in White Plains, New
York. We live in
Pittsburgh
so we went to
New York to have
Kulacz
do it. Dr. Meinig
said that
Kulacz
and Dr. Hussar in Reno were the two
best dentists who he trusted could really do the job right.
Dr.
Kulacz
was
wonderful. He pulled the tooth out in one piece in about 15
minutes. Then it took him about 45 minutes to scrape out all of the
infection in my
jaw bone
and sockets. IT
was
really bad
.
Dr.
Kulacz
and Dr.
Hussar are co‑writing a book which will soon be published which will detail the
proper protocol for having your root canal teeth pulled and how to clean out
the site. This will be great for dentists who desire to learn the
protocol and for patients who desire to share the
information with their dentists and/or oral
surgeons.

The holistic dentist l located is Dr.
Phillip
Memoli
, 438 Springfield
Avenue, Berkeley Heights, NJ 07922, phone 908‑464‑9144.
The first thing he did during the exam was to
test my two root canals.
They were right off the charts as far as
toxicity, and my response to the
toxicity. They were both passing
infection thru my body, accounting for
the fibromyalgia
pain
. As
soon as he removed the root canal on the right
side of my mouth, the pain just exited my right
arm. As soon as he did the
left one, the pain in my left sciatic
nerve. I had a blood test on
Monday to determine what substances will be
compatible with my mouth so he
can replace the other amalgams with the right
substance. I've just begone
the process and I'm totally thrilled and
dedicated to being healthy again.

Subject: A recovery story...fibromyalgia
. I am well on my way to
recovery. About 3 weeks ago I had two root canals removed by Dr.
Phillip
Memoli
in Berkeley Heights. He is
holistic and terrific He tested the two root
canals
and I was off the charts for mercury toxicity. The minute the root
canals were removed the shooting pain in my left arm
left,
and
hasn't returned since. Neither has any other fibromyalgia
pains. I am delighted to say the least. I just had blood
work done to determine biocompatibility for the replacement substances. Over
the next few
months
I will have the 6 teeth with
amalgams fixed as
well. Linda

Well, I'm only 4 days since they removed 3 of my
5
cavitations
. I still have some
tatoo
crowns. I have lupus and fibromyalgia, and maybe also CFS. Since the surgery, I
haven't had any headaches, and I used to get them daily. I used to have these
deep knots on my back and neck (very painful). They have disappeared. It's
unbelievable! One thing I'm still a little discouraged about, is that my mouth
still hurts, but I guess that's
understandable. Amelia. dental@yahoogroups.com

report on my 2
cavitational
surgeries with
Dr.Steve
Evans,who
I think is a great dental surgeon and has helped
me
greatlyto
put me on the road to regain my health.
The last 3 years in my life have been pure hell but I believe there is an
answer now and I am very hopeful of the future.> > I just want to let
people know my fatigue has lifted with this last surgery. I had a
cavitat
xray
and it was clear
that all the teeth on my left side had to be removed.> > I had 3 teeth on
the top and one on the bottom removed and the
cavitations
cleaned.> > The surgery was 6 1/2 hours long. The
cavitat
also showed severe
necrois
on the right side as well
and it looks like I will lose all on my molars on that side as well. The right
side is almost symptomless except for a bit of buggy feeling
once
in a while
. The teeth do not hurt to touch or eat
with
but I am sure they are all dead.
All of
my teeth on
the left were dead. There was not much
necrois
under
the bottom left tooth that had been next to the metal crown tooth and
theroot
canaled tooth that had been dealt with in the last
surgery
but the tooth was> > very infected and
dead. The
cavitat
showed that the last
surgery was
sucessful
where I had the> metal crown
tooth and root canaled tooth. The bone had almost grown back. The top wisdom
tooth cavitation site had not healed as well. I believe it was because there
were 3 infected teeth and lots of
necrois
that
prevented me from healing the first time. He did that site over as he removed
the infected teeth and cleaned the dead infected bone. My top molar had very
long roots and was deeply embedded in the my
sinuses and
was very infected.> > My face was very swollen after surgery and I had a
major headache but no chills or sweats this time. Immediately following the
surgery
I had 5 bowel movements one right after the other, that
were black as the ace of spades and the second time I urinated, it felt like
razors blades coming out of me. I suspect it was the
toxins. After the swelling went down, I felt my energy return.
I was in Montreal for my blood volume and
spect
scan
test when it happened.> > I stayed next to the hospital with the sisters
and the next morning I woke up and said wow, I do not dread to face the day. I
knew then that the surgery was needed for me to recover. They are in the
process of identifying the
pathagens
in the
cavitation sites. They have identified yeast as one. There are over 200 species
of bacteria and mycoplasma is one of them. These bacteria combined with
the heavy metals are very dangerous. These bacteria produce very
dangerous toxins and are encapsulated so no antibiotic will get rid of
them.> > In the next e-mail I will give the report of the enzymes
affected with these toxins and the biopsy report. I
use
to have frequent migraines and sinus headaches. I have
seen major improvement in those. Marlene

Mmacfar@nbnet.nb.caI
had a root canal done on the bottom
left, the first big molar. After a while I
started
having
lots of
health problems including bruxism, pains. My head bothered me every
day. I had other health problems that were even worse than the pressure.
It was so bad I knew that if I ever got better, I wanted to do something
to try to help others, so I wrote about my story on a webpage. http://webpages.charter.net/kyarbrough/rootcanals.htm

me.http://webpages.charter.net/kyarbrough/rootcanalemails.htm There
are some health problems I refer to but do not go into detail about on my

itches from time to time, but at least my health is better again.

I was totally disabled with chronic fatigue, pain, pressure in my
head, and other problems.
It was hard to have any hope left, it was hard to believe that I
would ever be anything but sick
andwishing
to die.
The dentist did not want to pull my root-canaled tooth, he told me I
wasgoing
to miss that tooth. It has been 8
years,
I have never missed that tooth. The very moment the
tooth came out the pressure that I felt in my head, which felt like my head was
going to explode, was GONE. When I got home, I didn't go to bed, the chronic
fatigue was so much better, I
didntjust
lay around
anymore, I got energy back and over the next few months, I got better and
better. It was so unbelievable that I was afraid it wouldn't last. At 30 I felt
like I had one foot in the grave, at 41, the difference is amazing. I never
dreamed I would ever feel like I do today. Melanie

My
28 year old
daughter was suffering
from chronic fatigue and neurological problems. She had a large
load of Hg, 6
osteonecrotic
cavitations

and neurological symptoms that started to mimic MS or ALS. We found some MD's
and a fabulous dentist who knew what they were doing. I am happy to
say that she is now healthy, happy, Hg free,

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
I have long had chronic health problems
. The
first symptoms were: facial pain, recurring infections (ears, sinus, throat),
swollen and throbbing neck glands, burning gums and throat, throbbing gums.
Then it gradually escalated to total brain fog (couldn't even balance my check
book or carry on a conversation), severe and continuous infections, loss of
balance, tremors, dropping things,
falling down
,
running into walls, difficulty talking and intermittent facial paralysis. I
tested positive for Lupus but had no symptoms of Lupus, was diagnosed with
hypoglycemia and candida, serious food allergies, nothing that would explain
the severe symptoms. Doctors suspected MS, possibly a stroke, but when my
symptoms got
really bad
, I was not interested in doing
another battery of tests to get diagnosed with something they couldn't cure
anyway. I was racing for my life and I was only interested in finding the
CAUSE.
I found a MD in St Louis
who did EAV testing; his EAV test showed a strong dental connection.
After researching this I
saw a dentist who said I needed to do extract most of my teeth since most had
root canals as well as amalgam. I had root canal teeth
extracted and after tests found
cavitations
I had
surgery. The cavitation surgeries helped in several ways. The first
thing I noticed was that my sinuses started to clear up
afer
I had the upper right and left surgeries. After each one, for about 10 days, I
had very "nasty" nasal discharges. I assume this was my sinuses
cleaning themselves out. I used to be on antibiotics year around for sinus
infections. I have not had a sinus infection in several months now, they
stopped immediately after the upper surgeries. I also used to have constant
facial pain in the front (on each side of the nose) and in the molar area on
both sides. Interestingly, the location of the pain corresponded with previous
extraction sites or root canal sites. After each
cavitational
surgery, the pain in that site went away. I had my last surgery 3 weeks ago on
the upper front. I have ZERO pain now. What a
relief !!

I was really in bad
condition before I had my cavitation surgery, and the
cavitat
showed lots of problems. I requested the biopsy mostly to have
some hard evidence for my
insurancecompany
because I
knew it was going to be difficult to get payment on
this.After
several appeals I finally got payment from
my insurance on a
portionof
the cost. The dental
portion covered the extraction and the
medicalportion
covered the cavitation surgery. Since the cavitation surgery is
nowa
FDA approved procedure, all I had to do was convince
my insurance
companythat
it was not a dental
procedure
but a medical procedure related to
thebone
. Just because the affected bone was in my mouth
didn't necessarily
makeit
a dental thing. It was a
battle and took many phone calls and appeals.
Iknow
of another person who's insurance covered up to $2200 for each
surgery.My
insurance allowed $1600
out of $3300 and I am appealing
thatdetermination

I had cavitation surgery done in White Plains, NY. I live in
Louisville, KY and after doing a lot of checking decided on Dr.
Kulacz
in White Plains. First of all he
had me mail him my
panorex
x-rays and he talked to me
on
the phone
. He asked if there wasn't
someone in my area that could do this surgery and I said no. I knew I had a
cyst on the pulp of a tooth but
I didn't
tell him. He is the only dentist that saw this by the x-ray and
told me
this tooth
wld
have to be removed. He could also tell that I needed
the cavitation
surgery by the x-ray. He saw two areas that needed
cavitational
cleaning and one tooth to be removed. He told
me on the phone he would be charging me $5000 and if more was to be done there
wld
be no additional
charge.When
I went to NY he used a machine to test for dead teeth and found another tooth
that needed to be removed. So, he removed two teeth and cleaned
upper and
bottom
caviational
sites. The bottom area (old jaw teeth that had been removed years ago) was the
largest
cavitational
site. On the upper area, a root
canal tooth that had been removed (last year) he found the tip still in the
bone and removed and cleaned out this entire bone area including the other
tooth removed and cleaned. The $5000 included the nurse assistant, the
Anesthesiologist and the biopsy report sent to Dr.
Bouquot
in WV and all of Dr.
Kulacz's
services. He also said
if I had any problem with anything (which he didn't expect me to) that he
wld
not charge me. He was really giving me a guarantee.
This was done a year ago this month. My head/neck pain went away and has never

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Hi,
I just wanted to ad that I had my amalgams replaced with
composits
(13 of them) all were in the teeth that get the most impact from chewing. That
was 20 or more years ago, and just last year one of them had to be replaced, it
started chipping off little pieces. I think mine lasted as long or longer than
my old amalgams because over the years a lot of those amalgams had to be made
bigger and bigger. I am very pleased with mine. I had horrible reactions and
sickness to a nickel crown over a root canal, it's gone now
too
and my health is very good. Kathy

*******************************************************************
I had a dying
tooth that had been infected
and initially
prepared for a crown then had a root canal form which made me even
sicker and the infection came back rampantly. My health and symptoms
improved significantly after
having the
tooth surgically removed. ANTIAMALGAM@AOL.COM

When I was a
teenager
I developed major
anxiety problems. The only thing that helped me with my anxiety/shakes was
alcohol .
I
was sent
to
alcohol detox for four weeks, just six months after I turned 21. I
stopped drinking alcohol, but the anxiety and shakes never went away
until I
got my fillings out....fifteen years
later. For me, it was an abdominal
xray
showing
metallic foreign bodies in
my appendix
, and
then doing my own research that convinced me. Without that
abdominal
xray
, I would have NEVER guessed the dental
metals
in my
mouth were making me so
sick! I think a lot of
alcholics
or problem drinkers are really just self-medicating. They are probably just
reacting to the metals in their mouths! It's a shame
....
soeasily
treatable at that
stage.... Dana Herbert

Subject: CFS, Cavitation
Surgery,
NanobacteriaRecently I
had my 4th quadrant
surgery for
Cavitations
. I had known
previous to
that that I had Nanobacteria infection and had
started the
NanobacTX
and been on it for 3 months.
This time 2 bone samples were sent off to MDL. Both were positive for
Nanobacteria by PCR. I had had very large
caviations
in all 4 quadrants and I believe that all would have had Nano in, as the
Histological picture of all sites was the
same.I
have had Hypercoagulation and severe CFS for 9 years. I have been on Heparin
for 15 months without any real benefit. Since the final surgery my Fibrinogen
levels have started to
fall
and I have been able to
reduce the Heparin. I will have to stay on the
NanobcTX
for 9-12months.I am
cautiosly
oprimistic
! My
CFS doctor is working with 4 dentists in Kansas City and is finding a lot of
Nano in the dental biopsies of her very sick
patients.Also
she is finding nanobacteria and
hypercoagulation in a high percentage of Fibromyalgia patients. Cleaning out
the
cavitations
, treating with heparin and
nanobacTX
has been VERY
successful.Anne

about Nanobacteria ( www.Nanobac.com ) and Hypercoagulation ( www.Hemex.com ).
Most of the work that has been done on Nanobacteria has been by the
Cardiologists, but Nano is also found in dental pulp stones and is recovered
from Cavitation sites. Dr
Carolann
Ryser is in Kansas
City......... She is treating CFS/Fibromyalgia patients with dental
issues.If
not, could you take the
info to your dentist and have him test you for nanobacteria and
Hypercoagulation? I had my PCR tests for nano done at Medical Diagnostics Lab
in
NewJersey

After 3 years of going
to GYN's I was finally diagnosed by the last one, as having Vulvodynia. The
doctor told me there was no cure for it, I would always have it, that they
could treat it, then got up and left the room.
Well
his treatments gave me no relief. But having the root canal
pulleddid
,
pulling the root canal, cured the incurable disease, plus cured many other
things that were wrong with me, for which I am very thankful.
I only had one root
canal, but I felt different before I left the dentist office. The pressure in
my head was gone. I had chronic fatigue which I saw immediate
improvement in that. Some things like my bones aching and muscles sore, being
bloated some things took longer to see major improvement or complete
improvement. Some things took weeks some months and some little
things I never got rid of, but I did not have the jawbone surgery which I believe
I need. On panoramic
xray
you can see the complete
outline of the root canal tooth and there is a ridge sticking out of the gum
that came up after the tooth was pulled. Sometimes the jawbone itches and down
my neck, and sometimes I can still feel just a little fluid in my ear. But the
little things I live with now are nothing in comparison to what I lived with
while I had the root canal, but I do believe with all my heart that I would not
have these little things wrong if I'd never had the root canal. I did take
herbs for
theimmune
system to try to help my body get
better."Melanie

I just wanted to report
that since removing the three cracked root canals I had in my lower jaw....and
after just eleven days on a very strict Gerson Therapy regime, including two
coffee enemas per day (three on weekends), to flush the toxins out of my
system, I am doing MUCH better! I am able to get through the day without a
single nap
now!Another
unexpected perk....that horrible whitish/yellow coating on my tongue that has
plagued me for some time is completely GONE now! My tongue looks like a 10 year
olds
tongue now
....nice
and
PINK! It's beautiful! I keep sticking my tongue out in the mirror and admiring
it! Dana Herbert <herbertdana@earthlink.net>

Frank: I
had written to you about candida several times. I just wanted to tell you what
has helped my health immensely. I had my mercury fillings removed as I was
going through homeopathic detox which helped a lot, but I still had this
strange potassium problem for 3 yrs. I had two
cavitations
cleaned out (infected bone where wisdom teeth used to be) and I had dramatic
change in health in first week. My potassium deficiency disappeared, my libido
came back, and now my need for
synthroid
is
decreasing!!!!!! It is hard to believe. DDS said it did not reach into sinuses,
and I know you suffer with
sinuse
stuff; perhaps this
is your answer. Please read, "Whole Body Dentistry" by Mark
Breimer
DDS. and read chapter on
cavitations
especially. Good luck. Jeanmarie www.cfs‑recovery.org/mercury.htm

Interestingly enough, I
see that some endodontists are now
giving "informed consent" when it comes to root canals. They are
warning patients that there is a 5-10% chance of fracture. I think this is a
good thing, because while all root canals are a health burden, fractured root
canals can be very detrimental to your health. Most patients are totally
unaware that they have a fractured root
canal
and it
may takes years for them to discover it and regain their
health! I
just had my second root canal out, #13. It is the first time in 20
yearsthat
I can
actually breathe
through my left sinus! I had #30 out two weeks ago, and now I can breathe
through my nose again! I used to be a mouth
breather! I
have four more root canals to go. Just getting rid of the two so far has made a
tremendous difference
....particularly
#30. What I like
about getting root canals removed is that there is a very rapid improvement in
the areas affected by
it's
meridians
....versus
removing amalgam and maybe even getting worse
before getting better through
chelation. You won't believe your eyes
when you SEE the tooth after it is removed
....all
green and slimy and if you get close enough and take a whiff, you will smell
the hydrogen sulfides in it....they smell like rotten
eggs! It is nice to come
home and lay on the sofa and visualize the blood flow returning to the organs
and to your jawbone, and the ROT gone from your mouth. Just seeing one of these
teeth pulled will be enough to prompt you
toget
them
all out as soon as possible! I
think the hydrogen sulfides caused my cerebral edema/cerebellar
herniationand
olfactory inflammation (which is not a
"lipoma" according to new neurology reports
....but
nobody could seem to figure out WHAT is was or what was causing it. And if they
did know, they certainly did not share that information with
me!). These hydrogen sulfides leak out into your jawbone and cause
periodontal disease
, and are then very difficult
to eradicate. If you have a horizontal fracture at the gumline in a root
canalled tooth, you will breathe these gases in and could end up with brain
damage like I did! So it is VERY important to re-
xray
a tooth soon after getting a bridge installed
....bridges
in particular can easily cause a horizontal crack in a root canalled tooth if
they have post and cores on both ends. My dentist did not re-
xrays
the teeth in my bridge until a year and a half later.
Then, it took me another two years to figure out the tooth was cracked, because
I paid out of pocket for the bridge since it was not covered by my
insurance,and
I guess she
didn't
want to tell me the tooth would have to be extracted, and refund me my money
for the bridge. If you
want to see how loaded up you are with root canal toxins, get an arterial blood
gas done. High carboxyhemoglobin levels mean high root canal toxins in your
bloodstream. My levels were 4.4 last summer. I thought my house had a carbon
monoxide leak in it, and even changed my muffler system on my car. Four weeks
ago, my carboxyhemoglobin levels were 4.3. This was after two of my root canals
were re-root canalled, so it dropped by just .
1.Then
I
was told that one of the teeth that was re-root canalled was bad, and leaking
root canal toxins, so I had it pulled. WHAT A DIFFERENCE!!! I
will re-check my carboxyhemoglobin levels soon and update you on the
results. When I consulted with
two oral
surgeon
two weeks later, I was told that
tooth #30 was causing my health problems, because it was fractured and cracked.
They also told me that a root canalled third molar, #32, was probably fractured
because, even though it looks good on the
panorex
, I
have had it for eight years and it has never been crowned. They told me
thatpulling
that one was optional, and all the other root
canals were
good. Yesterday,
I saw my dentist to prepare for an upper bridge that was removed two weeks ago
and had a tooth that
he
re-root canalled. He was also
going to extract #32. Instead, I had him pull #13 and prepare for a 4-unit
bridge, to be on the safe side. Boy, am I glad I did that just in time, before
spending $2400 on a bridge that I would later want to remove again anyhow! Of
course,the
dentist tried to talk
me out of it, telling me the root canal was good, and now had a fiberglass post
& core, instead of a nickel post and core, and said I'd feel a bigger
improvement by extracting #32....but #32 is not under a very expensive
bridge....I can pull it anytime I want. In fact, since my next dental
appointment is in three weeks, I am just going to go to
everywalk
-in
dental clinic I can find tomorrow until I find one that will extract #32 for me
without having to go through a big song and dance about how I believe in
biological dentistry, and have them roll their eyes, or pretend that I am in
"acute" pain. It would be nice if you could just walk into one of
these places and say "Here's $100, just pull this tooth for me, and
don'task
me any questions. Thank you." But they all
taught to "save a tooth at any cost". It just goes against their
training. I know that this is changing
....but
it is
still rampant in the dental
industry.I
think that
when it comes to root canals, they should be viewed only as a temporary
solution to get you out of immediate pain, and only for teeth that would leave
you looking silly if you pulled it....i.e., a front tooth, until you can afford
to pull it and put a bridge in. There is no need to
rootcanal
large double rooted back teeth at all. You can't see them anyhow
....just
pull them. And then put a bridge in later for
chewing purposes, if having a hole there bothers you that
much!Dana

Numerous cases of
recovery: http://melanie2.50megs.com/rootcanalemails.htm
***************************************************************************
I know of several people
who were cured of
chronic hives
by having there
healthy looking
root canals removed. Incredible. I don't
really know what the other options are aside from extracting bad teeth. I had
one extracted and it was psychologically damaging to me, but not as bad as the
pain I had with that bad root canal. I used to come home and cry from pain.
After pulling it, I still had pain--- which appears to have gone into remission
after a
3 week
course of Clindamycin and then I had
the problem of crying b/c I was toothless. It still bothers me to be missing a
tooth, but I would rather not have that bad tooth in my mouth. I know you all
say implants are bad, but I am going for it next year. I will see what happens.
If I do have ill health from it then I will just have to remove that as
well. Susan

Subject: re: TOPAS test
results
What percent of root-canaled teeth tested test toxic?
Are you talking about bacteria, bacteria toxins, enzyme effects,
toxins?
_______________
I have not tested enough teeth for statistical
significance
but I believe 25-33% would be a reasonable figure.
Yes
they are testing for toxins, see the TOPAS site for details:
